Slice Engineering Slice Engineering Copperhead Bimetallic Heat Break - 1.75mm - Standard G2
Slice Engineering’s Copperhead Bimetallic Heat Break is constructed from strain-hardened stainless steel surgical tubing and copper alloy and was designed for optimal heat transfer in your hotend using thermal imaging technology. Even at temperatures up to 450°C, The Slice Engineering Bimetallic Heat Break conducts and diffuses heat efficiently to enhance 3D printing precision to give you the best results possible from your 3D printer. The Slice Engineering Bimetallic Heat Break is one of the main components in all configurations of Slice Engineering’s Copperhead Hotend System, and several variants are available to unlock major upgrade potential for a variety of existing 3D printer setups.

THE COPPERHEAD BIMETTALIC HEAT BREAK IS OPTIMIZED FOR HEAT TRANSFER AND UNLOCKS NEW LEVELS OF PRECISION AT AN AFFORDABLE PRICE
Unlike most materials, plastics don’t have a clean transition from solid to liquid during melting. As filament moves through a hotend, it heats up and reaches the material’s glass transition temperature (Tg), entering a semi-solid, semi-liquid, “gooey” state. While in this state, the plastic responds to applied forces like a wet noodle, which can cause undesirable 3D printing effects like reduction in resolution, blobbing, and jamming. An efficient heat break narrows the physical distance during which the plastic is at it’s Tg, and thus improves 3D printer performance. The Bimetallic Heat Break™ from Slice Engineering® is the only heat break designed through the use of thermal imaging to optimize heat transfer for a high precision 3D printing experience at an affordable cost with convenient options.

COPPERHEAD HEAT BREAK – STANDARD – G2 PRODUCT UPDATES
The CopperHead Standard Heat Breaks have increased in length by 3 mm to accommodate Raise3D 3D Printers. Now known as the CopperHead Heat Break – Standard - G2, the accompanying heat sinks that fit this heat break have also been updated to Copperhead Heat Sink - Groove Mount - G2 and Copperhead Heat Sink - Screw Mount - G2.
Combining the Copperhead G1 Standard Heat Break with Copperhead G2 Heat Sinks and visa-versa will still function for customers who have older versions of each component.

Questions
Does the Creality Ender 5 plus require the Mk10 or standard heat break with the standard creality heat sink
Does the Creality Ender 5 plus require the Mk10 or standard heat break with the standard creality heat sink?
Will it fit sidewinder x1?
What are the inner dimensions of the Heat Break for the Prusa Mini? I want to print at >=260c and am looking for a heat break that doesn't require a PTFE tube to be inserted through the hot end.
Is this compatible with Biqu B1?
The Standard G2 version states that this will fit on a Raise3D Pro2. This is not wholly true. While the top smooth section may fit in the collar of the gantry assembly, you will need to modify the stock heatblock to accept the M6 -1.0 threading. Currently, the stock Raise3d Pro2 heatblock is threaded for M5 -.8 on the heatbreak side.
Is there a model that will fit the CR10 V3 with the stock hotend?
The dimensions of the Standard variant given here (6mmx18mm) do not match the dimensions of the Standard G2 variant found on the Slice Engineering site (6mmx21mm)... https://www.sliceengineering.com/products/copperhead-hotends#technical-specifications Which one is correct?
With this fit an Anycubic Vyper?
I am interested in purchasing a Slice Engineering Copperhead Bimetallic Heat Break for my Creality 10S Pro V2. Is their a version that fits
Will this heat break fit/work for the Ender 3? If not, what model will?
Will the standard version fit the Sidewinder X1 v4?
Will this work on a Snapmaker 2.0?
Is there a heatbreak and hotblck combination that will work on a Creality CR6-SE?
Is the copperhead heatbreak plug and play with Bondtech extruder upgrade for MK3S ? and If yes, what about the heartbreak + the copperhead hot end? thanks
Will this work with Sunlu S8 printer?
Is this compatible with the Pulse XE?
Is the MK10 option the same inner diameter the whole way through? (i.e. unlike the Flexion, Prusa i3 mk3, and other heat breaks that have a "lip" inside)
I have an Original Prusa i3 MK2S, my heatbreak on the hotend is bent. Is this the correct replacement part? If I replace this piece, do I also need to add Thermal Paste when replacing. Thank You.
Is this compatible with Creality Ender 3 Pro?
The C -E model is the only one that will fit an ender 3/pro/v2
